Stainless Steel for Your Kitchen Sink

Stainless steel is an undoubtedly popular choice for today’s kitchens. From refrigerators and microwaves to stoves and dishwahsers, stainless steel is everywhere. Stainless steel is also a great choice for your kitchen sink. Here’s why.

Why choose stainless steel for your kitchen sink?

Beyond its sleek look, the classic material is practical and extremely versatile. Stainless steel sinks complement a wide range of kitchen styles but are most at home in contemporary and transitional spaces. Stainless steel is also incredibly durable. Plus, they live up to their name, staying resistant to staining and rust. Hot pans won’t hurt them, and they’re less likely than harder materials, such as stone, to damage delicate dishware.

Stainless steel is also easier to clean. Most stainless steel sinks just need a quick rinse and wipe down with a sponge. Kohler’s Undertone Preserve Series feature a unique scratch-resistant layer that offers added protection from everyday wear and tear. Kohler Strive series sinks include accessories like bottom bowl racks, a divider dishcloth bar, and a divider utility shelf.

Kohler Stainless Steel Sinks at Weinstein Bath & Kitchen Collegeville Showroom

Kohler has more than 120 different stainless steel sink designs, shapes, and sizes available, within a range of prices. You can choose between fabricated sinks, which are made by bending and welding the stainless steel, or drawn, or molded, stainless steel sinks, which are made by pressing the steel over a mold so there are no seams.

With so many different options to choose from, you’ll want to think about how you work in the kitchen to help you narrow down your choices. Do you use your dishwasher for almost everything except pots and pans? You’ll likely want to consider a single-bowl sink or a sink with a low divider that can accommodate larger items. Do you wash most of your dishes by hand? You’ll likely want a two-bowl sink. Think about the placement of your prep space and dishwasher when choosing your bowl configuration. Do you work from left to right?
